Those difficult questions

Tonight, while watching the “Ultimate Avengers” movie, the subject of dying came up. And of course, Maggie asked Daddy “what happened to those people?” Daddy told her they died. “Why did they die?” To which Daddy asked “Are you going to start asking those hard questions?” Maggie: “yes. Dad, I think we need to have a talk.”

They talked a little bit about growing older and your body getting sick and not working anymore and going to heaven to be with Jesus. Then Daddy asked if Maggie remembered Nala. Of course, she said “Yes!” He told her that Nala got old and sick and she died. And Maggie replied “And then she came back as Wiconi!” Ummm, okay.
